DUMBO's Music At the Bridge series continues tonight, where five Brooklyn performance spaces—each with a limited seating capacity, but impeccable taste and a lot of heart and personality— are invited to make the Tobacco Warehouse their home for the evening. This evening is currated by our favorite Williamsburg passed-hat, avant jazz spot, Zebulon. Featuring performances by Stuart Bogie/Superhuman Happiness (atmospheric funk-pop instrumentals from Antibalas member), Charles Gayle Trio (impromptu jazz with a throwback to the 60s), Colin Stetson (saxophonist extraordinarre) and Sharon Van Etten (bittersweet neo-folk). More info on the artists below. All Ages.

Charles Gayle Trio
Featuring Michael Wimberly on drums and Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz on Bass. Jon Pareles of The New York Times says their sound is “an impulsive mixture filled with energy and texture, a throwback to the impromptu times of the 60s." This trio surely has no routine and the off the cuff atmosphere allows the freedom for anything to happen. Charles Gayle will be joined by Michael Wimberly and Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz.

Colin Stetson

He has also toured with Arcade Fire, playing clarinet, bass clarinet, French horn, cornet and bass saxophone. Check him out at: www.colinstetson.com
Sharon Van Etten, solo
"Sharon Van Etten plays bittersweet neofolk so slow, spare and subtle that you might have to crane your neck to hear it. The Brooklyn songsmith’s tunes are definitely worth the effort." - Time Out New York. Sharon will be accompanied by Noa Babayof. Check her out at: www.myspace.com/sharonvanetten
